About the Facilitators
As the founders of the HSP Retreats UK, Dr Genevieve von Lob and Jules De Vitto are two of the country’s leading specialists in high sensitivity, and have spent over a decade researching and studying the trait of high sensitivity.
Dr Genevieve von Lob
Clinical Psychologist and Parenting Coach
Genevieve is a clinical psychologist, conscious parenting coach and author. After 15 years working in the NHS, private practice in Harley Street and inside big corporations, she wrote two parenting books with Penguin, including ‘Five Deep Breaths: The Power of Mindful Parenting.’
Genevieve is one of the leading experts in the UK on high sensitivity in children, with regular appearances in the media including BBC Woman’s Hour, Channel 4 and The Guardian and has appeared on webinars with Sensitivity Research. Genevieve specialises in working with highly sensitive children and their parents. She is the author of “The Resonant Parenting Project,” and “The HSP Revolution.”
In the 20 years since Genevieve qualified as a psychologist, Genevieve has helped hundreds of people from all walks of life transform trauma and stress into a greater sense of confidence, ease and flow.
But her own healing journey has taught her that a supportive community can be the catalyst for transformation on a whole new level.
Born to a single mother in an alternative community in the east of England, Genevieve’s earliest experiences of feeling safe and protected in a village-like atmosphere laid the foundations for her later professional interest in community healing spaces.
While earning her psychology doctorate, Genevieve wrote a thesis on the psychological benefits of group singing. But it was only in her late 20s, when she was starting to confront unresolved traumas and losses from her own past, that she began to discover the true power of healing in community.
Over a period of several years, Genevieve explored countless healing modalities, investigating everything from nature connection to shamanic drumming, sound bowls and ecstatic dance. When she stumbled upon a sweat lodge ceremony in Oxfordshire in southern England, she finally understood what it meant to feel truly safe and held. The community there was so supportive that for the first time she truly felt comfortable being vulnerable in front of others, and never felt judged. Nobody stepped in to try to fix or rescue – but they did bear witness, and it was in that space that Genevieve did some of the most profound work on herself.
Running retreats for highly sensitive people represents the fulfilment of a vision that Genevieve has held ever since that time – of creating healing spaces where people can find sanctuary, connect and learn from others on the same journey, and rediscover who they really are.
